Mission #1: Unnecessary solicitation

The text I've currently got listed under the 'unnecessary solicitation' section of the first mission for the first-time solicitation happens no matter what. If you don't talk to him before the mission, he'll use the same text after the mission...

I'm not sure whether it's a game bug or not, but I figured I'd document it here in case someone else has a better way of representing it on the contact page  FW (talk · contrib)  03:12, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

I think it's a bug, and that text is supposed to be the initial contact dialog. The same thing happens with Dean MacArthur. I put the text into the initial contact section, with just the unnecessary solicitation remaining. I've only done these mission from Ouro, so that might have something to do with it?

Dr. Zeist and Higgins in Mission 1

They each have an NPC Text box. Within each box is a Briefing template. In Higgins', I was able to change the title so it doesn't say 'Briefing'. As part of my attempts at doing so, I created a page for Dr. Higgins. I tried to do the same, without giving him his own page, for Zeist, but it doesn't look like it worked (I changed the "Type" for the briefing template). I don't really want to add a whole page for Dr. Zeist, since I don't think he or the other 2 good doctors are quite worthy of their own pages. If there's a way to change that 'Briefing' text so it doesn't say "Breifing" without giving Zeist his own page, that would be neat.

I changed it because I don't think that their dialogues are really briefings: Zeist's certainly isn't (maybe a debriefing). It just seems to me that briefings should be kept to the main contact, and in-mission dialog should be something else.

Never mind, I fixed it. Felderburg 22:03, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Interesting Note

Oddity: a Leonard "Milton" co founded the company, while this Leonard is Mane's body guard. This is how the text appears in game, but maybe they should be the same? Or maybe whoever wrote this arc just likes the name Leonard? Felderburg 03:54, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Frankly, I'm wondering where the name "Silmon" comes from. I did the arc in-game, and he quite specifically is called "just Leonard." I believe the character's actual last name is Milton, and is indeed the one found in the PPD files, and that "Silmon" is entirely incorrect and probably a holdover from beta. --GuyPerfect 16:27, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
